Funny how most of us have gone for those round things on the front sides.

I like to think they are air intake vents for extra thrust when flying on planets with atmospheres.... one day... a man can dream.

Yeah, I went through all the various add-ons like it was an eye check up - "A or B" "um... B" okay (keeps B adds another option) "Now, A or B..." until I found what I liked. It's not so much that I liked the round intakes as I didn't like the other ones, they didn't really do anything for me. Same goes for my wing options, the other options just didn't do it for me. But the spoiler and the rear I thought were good touches, and ended up complementing the wings, so it's all good.

I was thinking of them as enhanced reverse thrusters to go along with the dirty drives on the ship ;)

As for the flag look, I'm not sure why I dig it so much. If I owned a van I wouldn't paint it like that unless I was transporting cases of beer ;) Maybe because it stands out so much that, unlike the other paint jobs out there, any CMDRs out there that see it are instantly going to recognize it ;)

So- we get to select the bits to add?

That changes everything.

Yep. 4 options on 4 different spots on the ship. So tons of possible combinations, and it adjusts to your color scheme.

Cobra mammaries ftw. I actually bought the kit just for these "vents" but then I realized they had amblyopia which looks more pronounced on a cobra.

You sure that isn't just the "lens" the external camera uses making it seem that way?

They look like more bits to snag on the toaster rack!


No, I haven't bought them yet - no stations out in the black!

Can we get a windscreen wiper/polisher? my cockpit glass is nasty!


Any bad boy milk churn tail pipes? ;)

Mercenary skin came with "mercenary package" during beta, along with the Freagle.

Ah thank you! Sadly I discovered Elite a bit late for that... I started playing shortly before Horizons came out. Very cool skin! I'll look forward to specials like this in the future :)

I do hope they add these little comstomizable bits to all the ships. Nice to add a bit of personal flare to your ship (which you can attribute to your Engineer upgrades ;) ). Also got a new paint job during the Olympics.

I shall name her: The Back Bacon Express.

Laying in my hospital bed looking for something to put a smile on my face, I happened to find your thread. Smiling now ��

Thankyou
